Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

Opinion | We Need Proof of Life for the Makeup Artist Trump Sent to El Salvador (Gift Article) It’s a moral imperative to try to rescue people like Andry Hernández Romero.

Andry Hernández Romero: disappeared

"four Democratic members of Congress went to El Salvador... they sought proof of life for Hernández Romero. They didn’t get it.

Blue graphic with white and yellow text featuring a quote from a constituent of Congressman Ted Lieu: "I am watching my ENTIRE family live in fear about their jobs and the economy. The uncertainty is causing untold stress and anxiety which affects one's outlook on this country. There is now a growing distrust of the government and its ability - or desire, to reign in the powers of Washington. It's too bad we can't go back in time when there was a real middle class, and where are economy allowed people to work and enjoy living in this country."

Prices are too high. People are worried about losing their jobs. Retirement is further out of reach for too many. Trump and Republicans are making things worse.

Don’t just take House Democrats’ word for it. Here’s what a constituent wrote.

Bwahahahahaha

Don't be surprised if the "concessions" Donald Trump is looking for from foreign countries in exchange for dialing back tariffs are not "you need to buy more pork from American farmers" but "you need to lease another floor in Trump Tower for ten years."

In just a few short weeks, Trump has personally dragged the world into chaos and America into recession in ways that will decimate his base as much if not more than anyone.

Hope it was worth it to them to own the Libs.

Great. If we aren’t taking away their Medicare and social security, leaving them hungry and frightened, let’s make sure grandma gets abused in the nursing home. FFS

Donald. Fucking. Trump.

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.

He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well.

His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel.

To The People I Know Who Voted for Him, To the people I know who voted for him,

By voting for him you have declared how little we have in common, how small our shared ground of agreement is, and how different the visions of this nation we share.

And as much as it grieves me, I’m simply choosing to believe you.
